He would play in two games late in the season, compiling just one tackle and no other stats. The next time we heard his name, it was as part of the Alliance of American Football.The league would last just 8 weeks before folding up and filing for bankruptcy, but in seven game appearances, Moore would put up 7.0 sacks to lead the league in sacks per game.Once the league folded in early April, he was a hot commodity and with the Raiders in need of pass rush still, it seemed like a logical choice for him to return to the Raiders for what would be a third stint in the past three years (he was in camp with the team in 2016 as well).It didn’t happen that way, instead Moore signed on with the 49ers and the Raiders signed his San Diego Fleet pass rushing teammate, Alex Barrett instead.Well, if they would like to bring Moore back and reunite him with Barrett, they may now do so, because he was just cut by the 49ers.Moore didn’t even make it to OTA’s with the 49ers, which is rather strange, though perhaps not that strange when you look at his track record. He lasted just 20 days with the Raiders last season and back in their 2016 camp, he was waived following a fight he had with Jalen Richard in practice.The former 3rd round pick bounced around to six different teams the past five years. He clearly has some talent, so maybe something else is going wrong for him.Follow @LeviDamien Raiders fans Reggie Nelson Jersey , sign up for FanPulse HERE!Free agency is a time of hope.

Downing-USA TODAY SportsRaiders fans, sign up for FanPulse HERE!Free agency is a time of hope. That’s at least the case with every team going in. Coming out of it, however, that isn’t always the case. Some teams end up watching more free agents leave than they add, which can be frustrating for fans who always come into it thinking their team will retain their good players and make a play for the big names on the market.Even with there being no way every team can improve in free agency, it’s a rare thing that fans don’t find enough positives to have them saying they think their team got better. How do we know this? I mean, aside from ‘Gee, no shit, they’re fans’? Each NFL team blog on SB Nation put out a poll asking the fans if they thought their team improved this free agency. All but THREE had a majority say yes. And one of them was the Super Bowl champions, so there wasn’t really anywhere they could improve.The only two team blogs other than Pats Pulpit whose fans didn’t think their team improved in free agency were The Daily Norseman (Vikings) and Phinsider (Dolphins), when mathematically speaking, it’s more likely 50% of them didn’t improve. So, I guess, I’m saying take fan polling with a bit a grain of salt.That being said Kolton Miller Jersey , there were a few teams’ fans who had no doubt whatsoever that their team has improved. The Browns, Jets, Titans, Lions, Colts, and, of course, Raiders all voted 100% in the poll.Unfortunately, the polling doesn’t have a way to keep their opinion of trades affecting their opinion of free agency, so they tend to get lumped together. No doubt the unanimous feelings that Browns and Raiders fans have derive from the trades each team made to acquire top receivers Odell Beckham Jr and Antonio Brown respectively.Even without including Antonio Brown in opinions of free agency, you can say the Raiders got better — even though for a 4-12 team, that may not be saying much. New holes the team have opened up at guard with the trade of Kelechi Osemele and tight end with Jared Cook signing with the Saints. Those are significant losses, make no mistake. But the additions outweigh them.There were had holes to fill all over the roster, most notably edge rusher, wide receiver, linebacker, offensive tackle P.J. Hall Jersey , and defensive back.The only position that did not receive an infusion of talent was edge rusher. While that puts a bit of a dark cloud over the Raiders free agency as a whole, other need positions did get some attention. Along with Antonio Brown, the team added Tyrell Williams. That’s improvement over Jordy Nelson, who has retired.The Raiders signed a couple veteran linebackers in Vontaze Burfict and Brandon Marshall. Both may or may not play major roles or even make the team, but the odds are good one of them will upgrade a lackluster unit.There is of course tackle Trent Brown, who helps out one of the worst tackle duos in the NFL last season. For that they made Brown the highest paid offensive lineman in history. The only long term deal handed out on defense went to Lamarcus Joyner who will play primarily nickel corner, but will at times line up at safety as well.So, which of these free agent signings will prove to be the most impactful? There was a fampulse poll for that too! And the answer overwhelmingly was Trent Brown, taking 70% of the vote. Burfict was second with 17% of the vote (Marshall had not been signed at the time of the survey), Tyrell Williams was third with 10.6% and somehow the least voted upon was Joyner with just 6.4% of the vote.While I don’t at all understand how Joyner could be so disrespected for what he brings to the team, I understand why Trent Brown would be considered the most impactful. The fans watched Kolton Miller and Brandon Parker give up some 30 sacks last season, so replacing either or both of them and potentially giving Derek Carr — who was sacked 51 times — much needed protection was crucial. If Brown’s addition could cut down that number by 10-15 sacks it would make a significant impact.Also see: Raiders missed out on trading fro Trent Brown last offseason, ‘betting on his upside’ nowFollow @LeviDamien
